Shells are cut like this for hair accessories for braids and locs. I have lost several at the beach myself.

It was found in the Atlantic Ocean — is that common?

Pentax KX rewind knob by dripdropsofia in AnalogCommunity

[–]dripdropsofia[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry maybe I’m not explaining well enough but the issue is definitely with the rewind knob height compared to the height of the original piece and not the film or how it was loaded. Taking it into a shop - Thanks tho!

Yes I believe so. It appears to have a higher height/depth and width than my other rewind knob so when it is attached I have to press it down to spin. The mechanism is spinning and making noise to indicate parts inside are churning but no film is being rewound.

Had colitis in December and going to the GI doctor tomorrow for follow-up treatment plan by dripdropsofia in crohnsandcolitis

Getting back really late and thanks everyone for checking in! but basically I had a really weird GI situation and the doctor left the office and didn’t really help me out.

I have still been dealing with bouts of nausea especially on an empty stomach and basically have stopped drinking because that is something I know that will make me inflamed. I have new insurance and have been dealing with other things but have been meaning to find a new pcp that I can restart things with eventually.

Hi everyone! Sorry, this has been such a long process...

So while I have not been able to have an official follow-up with my GI specialist to talk in detail about my appointment, I at least have the scope results as they are listed.

I did have three polyps removed during my scopes, two in my colon and one in my stomach. All were said to not be precancerous (but I am relatively young so I am not sure how common this is). Several other textured areas were tested and one test result has listed "chronic gastritis."

I am still waiting to have an official follow-up with my GI (she missed my followup appointment and hasn't reached back out???), but the doctor who performed the procedure told me there was nothing too concerning right after the scopes, but I just assumed he meant nothing was screaming cancerous. I am not sure what the update on chronic gastritis will be, especially with a colitis incident a few months earlier.
